Bike Anti-Porn - When Things Go Wrong

pft, details.

I actually laughed out load at that dog photo. Pure genius.

I'm not really sure where to put this, so I'm putting it here.

Intitialy the bike seems fine. But then you read the fucking blurb. It's the blurb and the whole package that makes it anti for me. Basically no different to a fluro Puma in a Carnaby St window.

Prime example:

Really? It sounds like a a compact frame (or at least semi-compact) to me. And the only reason not to call it compact is to distance the product from more comercial factory tawanise road bikes, and ensure that it falls into that uncommercial niche that is so hot right now.

The whole faux friendly, small-time, humble bike maker shit makes me want to puke.

I missed this post but you're so right. These things can really get to me too at times, and people will be like don't be a dick because I never seem to be able to make them see that shit the way I do. Fuck this kind of marketing bullshit. It's offensive.

looks quite nice though.

Spokorama!

im not sure about you all..but i kinda like this one!

somebody put way too much money in that

I like it too, but it also looks like the front wheel is on back-to-front

It's just the rim stickers and grips that ruin it for me. Otherwise it's full of win.

This^ and black/gold spokes pattern. What's wrong with the rest?

its not to go faster if not to cut the wind

Just the stem/bar, maybe front tyre, align the rear label with valve and that's it, if you ask me. This frame's mighty tasty!

Just that?... well I guess I posted it in the right section then, right?

Well I'm not disputing that. It's just a bit frustrating how simply putting wrong bar and stem combo ruins such a nice bike. Aesthetically, that is.

I know, specially knowing the same owner has so many nice bikes...
Why aren't these people selling these frames, instead of riding them with risers, beats me..
The Cinelly Lopro deserves to go back to its original condition.

Lovely frames tho.

I don't really mind risers on some lo-pro's (except when they are set up so ridiculously high).

Cinelli is just wrong though.
Depends on the bike, can't quite put my finger on it..

You can put risers on any frame, it's just wrong to fuck such beauties... when someone else would make it justice.

sigh.

Hardly new, but as correct as it has ever been.
